"In my opinion, you have no chance of winning against Li Chenghua." Zhu Yu came to the conclusion simply and straightforwardly, "In terms of your ability on the battlefield, you are far from Li Chenghua's opponent.

It just so happens that you have this opportunity to let you experience the commanding ability of the generals of the Modao Army.Although the Longyou army is far behind the Modao army.

But an excellent commander can turn the simplest unit into a miracle.

The most important battle is the first time you fight Daqi Bingjia, and it is also the first battle that falls in the eyes of the world.Therefore, it is better for you to lose this battle than to win it. "

Zhu Chen was stunned for a moment, and after chewing for a while, he understood the meaning of his father's last sentence that it was better to lose than to win.He solemnly clasped his fists and said,

"My son understands."

After that, Zhu Chen continued, "My son has one more request, please don't give up on tracking down that sword repairer. I want to know who killed me."

"Ah."

"The Holy Mother knew that person. Before I fell into a coma, the Holy Mother asked me to wait for someone to come. It was obviously him who was waiting. Maybe we can start from this angle."

"En." Zhu Yu nodded slightly, and continued, "I'm to blame for this. I never thought that the Holy Mother would break the promise. The current situation is not good, and it doesn't make any sense to provoke the hostility of the deep-rooted White Lotus Sect. Let’s talk about it later.”

"It's father."

The carriage fell into silence again. Zhu Chen looked at the fleeting scenery outside the window, and some dim colors slowly appeared in the depths of his eyes.

Feiyun City.

It's morning time, and Yu Gan has finished his one-night practice.

These days, he was huddled in the city lord's mansion to practice like an ultimate nerd, but he didn't go there either.

Unlike Li Chenghua, he is very busy.

He has been in Feiyun City for a short period of time, and the friction with Nanyang still occurs from time to time, but the scale is not large.

During this period of time, the Longyou Army and the Republic of Nanyang Army fought six or seven small battles. The total number of people participating in the battle on both sides was around a thousand, and they were all fighting for some important small passes on the border.

In the biggest one, the Longyou Army sent out more than 700 people, and the Nanyang Army sent out 2000 people.These six or seven small battles were all won by the Longyou Army.

The famous Longyou Army is indeed not in vain, and its combat power is among the best in the world.

In these few battles, Li Chenghua did not command once, and even Xia Yuanzheng did not command once.But the name of the Longyou Army has already been established in the area around here.

The fame also faintly spread to the whole of Nanyang, and almost all Nanyang soldiers knew that the eldest son of the Great Qi Emperor was stationed in Feiyun City with [-] Longyou Army.This made many Nanyang generals who wanted to make military exploits ready to move.

After Yu Gan washed up a bit, he went to the dining hall to have some breakfast.As soon as they got there, they found Li Chenghua and Xia Yuanzheng sitting at one of the tables having breakfast.

Yu Gan walked over and sat down.During the period of getting along after leaving Tai'an City, they are no longer strangers to each other.

"Director Yu, after dinner, come with Minister Gongsun." Xia Yuanzheng said.

Yu Gan stuffed the meat bun into his mouth, and asked curiously, "Is there anything General Xia can do for you?"

"It's not considered helping, but protecting His Highness's safety. Chen Tuo will come later." Xia Yuanzheng smiled softly.

"Chen Tuo is coming? Is His Highness going to lead the army in battle?" Yu Gan asked curiously.

"How do you know His Highness is going to lead the army?" Xia Yuanzheng asked.

Yu Gan said, "Chen Tuo doesn't come sooner or later. I can't think of any other reason for coming at this time, except for the fact that the war is urgent."

With a warm smile on his face, Li Chenghua smiled at Yu Gan, "It's a pity that Director Yu didn't join the army. Yes, it's time for me to lead the army to fight."

"Has Nanyang made a big move?" Yu Gan continued to ask.

"Yeah." Xia Yuanzheng nodded and said, "I heard that Zhu Chen, the prince of Nanyang, personally led [-] elites of Nanyang to come here, and they arrived yesterday and stationed at the border.

It is facing Feiyun City, less than fifty miles away. "

Yu Gan narrowed his eyes at that time, and asked, "General Xia, are you sure he is Zhu Chen, the prince of Nanyang? Didn't you say that he was beheaded by a mysterious sword cultivator outside Tai'an City? I asked our Si Qing about it." .

Judging from the investigation, it was Zhu Chen who had no chance of life.How can you lead the army to fight now? "

"I don't know about that." Xia Yuanzheng shook his head and said, "The news that Nanyang has been spreading is that the prince is seriously injured and is being treated.

The voodoo technique on the southern border is already weird, maybe Zhu Chen was rescued by the monks from the southern border.This is very possible. After all, there is no problem with Nanyang King's current relationship with Nanjiang. "

Yu Gan's face is slowly turning cold now, it's normal that Xia Yuanzheng doesn't know the reason behind it.But he is the person involved, or the killer himself.

That cut off Zhu Chen's head on the spot, and attached it with sword energy, making it impossible for people to save him.How could Zhu Chen, who was only at the seventh rank, be rescued?

Now that the immortal way has collapsed, the world has long since lost the art of bringing the dead back to life.How could this Zhu Chen survive?

Can this southern border technique be so weird?

Yu Gan's brain is spinning so fast that he can't figure out the joints at all.Is this Zhu Chen here?

"General Xia, it stands to reason that the reason why Nanyang raised troops now is because Zhu Chen had an accident in Tai'an City. If Zhu Chen is fine now, why does Nanyang continue to march on the border?" Yu Gan asked.

Li Chenghua took the initiative to explain, "Now that the situation has reached this point, the reason is not so important. The situation of the Nanyang prince will not affect the big battle situation."

"So, that Zhu Chen led [-] soldiers to come for you, Your Highness?" Yu Gan asked.

"There is a high probability." Li Chenghua smiled, "Now the generals in Nanyang probably want to lead troops to fight with me. I didn't expect that Zhu Yu would let Zhu Chen come."

Yu Gan nodded lightly and didn't ask any more questions.His mind is still in turmoil.Taking ten thousand steps back, if this Zhu Chen is really still alive, then he must find a way to end it again.

This incident happened too suddenly, the first thing Yu Gan has to do now is to verify whether the person who came is Zhu Chen or not.Without seeing it with his own eyes, how could he believe that a terribly dead person could be resurrected.

Seeing Yu Gan's pensive expression, Li Chenghua suddenly said, "If I remember correctly, Dali Temple and Zhu Chen have a deep hatred."

Yu Gan looked up at Li Chenghua.

The latter continued, "I hereby assure you that if the person who comes is really Zhu Chen, if there is a chance on the battlefield, I will kill him."

Yu Gan paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Your Highness does not need to take this risk. Your Highness's kindness to Dali Temple is appreciated."

Just kidding, Yu Gan is not a fool, how could he take this seriously.

Let's put it this way, if Zhu Chen was really alive and sent his neck to Li Chenghua, the latter would not cut it off.

He is now leading a lone army of [-] Longyou troops to go deep. If he really kills Zhu Chen, let alone Nanyang King, all Nanyang soldiers will come to kill Li Chenghua like crazy.

The current situation is inherently delicate, Li Chenghua can sit here and eat breakfast with peace of mind, that is, Nanyang does not want to break this delicate balance and let Li Chenghua sacrifice the flag.

Because if Li Chenghua was really killed by Nanyang's hands here, he would be facing the boundless righteous anger of Daqi.Maybe the other princes in the territory would also be happy to use this as an excuse to come over and add fuel to the fire.

So as long as there is no full-scale conflict in the war, there is absolutely no problem with Li Chenghua's safety, and vice versa for Zhu Chen.

Before the balance breaks, the identities of these two people are the best protection, and it is impossible for Nanyang to take the initiative to kill him.Just like Li Chenghua wouldn't take the initiative to kill Zhu Chen who didn't know if he was real or not.

Li Chenghua smiled lightly, but didn't say anything more, just stood up and said, "Director Yu, after the meeting is over, take Minister Gongsun to meet me on the stage outside."

"Alright Your Highness, I'll go find Minister Gongsun." Yu Gan finished the food on the table in two or three bites, then got up and went to find Gongsun Yan to serve as Li Chenghua's bodyguard together.

This is where the two of them are the most powerful, and this kind of occasion must be closely guarded.

Soon, Yu Gan and Gongsun Yan went out of the City Lord's Mansion to catch up with Li Chenghua and the others.

The so-called Dianjiang Platform was actually temporarily set up on a high platform in the central city of Feiyun City.This Feiyun City was already prone to frequent wars, so it was very necessary to point to the general platform.

This time when Chen Tuo came, he asked Li Chenghua to meet here.

After arriving on the high platform of about five or six floors, Chen Tuo in golden armor was looking at Feiyun City leaning on the railing.

Li Chenghua and Xia Yuanzheng went up to chat with this Chen Tuo who came here with stars and a moon.Yu Gan and Gongsun Yan stood behind them, focusing on the surrounding situation.

There is naturally only one reason why Chen Tuo came all the way here, and that is that the prince of Nanyang personally led the troops here.

And the theme of the conversation between the three of them is also around this point.

Although Dianjiangtai is big, it is not difficult for Gongsun Yan to hear these words.

The more she listened, the more she frowned.She is a person who has personally experienced the Profound Realm, so it can be said that she didn't have the slightest liking for Nanyang, and hated it deeply.

Zhu Chen's death before made her calm down a bit, but now she heard that Zhu Chen was not only alive, but could even lead troops, how could she accept it.

"Zhu Chen is not dead?" Gongsunyan asked Yu Gan beside him in a low voice.

Yu Gan shook his head, "I don't know. I just heard General Xia talk about it just now."

"Isn't it the result of the investigation in the temple that Zhu Chen was beheaded, can this be saved?" Gongsun Yan still couldn't believe it and asked.

"That's why I need to confirm it." Yu Gan said, "When the fight starts, I'll take advantage of the situation and see if it's Zhu Chen."

Gongsun Yan clearly saw the deep coldness in Yu Gan's eyes.She can be said to know Yu Gan very well now, and from this look, she can also see Yu Gan's murderous intent towards Zhu Chen.

Gu Qingyuan's incident was originally to be blamed by the whole Nanyang, and the death of a prince before was enough to ease the hatred for the time being.

But now it is said that the son is safe and sound, no wonder Yu Gan is like this now.

Yu Gan has the right to speak about Gu Qingyuan more than anyone else.

"Don't be like this." Gongsun Yan whispered, "I know what you are thinking, maybe that prince is just a fake puppet pushed by Nanyang.

After all, from Nanyang's standpoint, it would be better to have a living son. "

Yu Gan smiled lightly, noncommittal.

"Take a step back, even if Zhu Chen is really not dead, you shouldn't be murderous here." Gongsunyan asked Yu Gan directly.

"We are in Nanyang, and with your and my strength, we definitely cannot succeed."

"Don't worry, minister, I have a sense of proportion. The most important thing now is to confirm what happened to this Zhu Chen." Yu Gan said with a light smile.

Gongsun Yan showed a little hesitation, but in the end she still didn't choose to say anything, but there was inevitably some worry in her eyes.

"How does Your Highness think Zhu Chen will attack?" Over there, Chen Tuo asked with a smile.

Li Chenghua just shook his head, "I don't know this person's style, so I don't dare to speculate. But just now Master Chen spoke highly of Zhu Chen's words, I think he must be quite powerful."

Chen Tuo said, "I don't care what I say, everything will be clear to His Highness himself, and His Highness will take a look at it in person when he is sweeping the formation in the afternoon. According to the scout report, Zhu Chen has set up camp on the other side of the Wu River."

"That afternoon, it's time for me to take a good look at this prince." Li Chenghua said with a light smile.

Chen Tuo nodded, put his right hand on the saber, and said, "I'm going first, I have to arrange the [-] soldiers I just brought over."

"Master Chen please." Li Chenghua nodded.

Chen Tuo didn't stay here any longer, and left directly to arrange for the new [-] soldiers.Li Chenghua and Xia Yuanzheng did not leave in a hurry, but continued to lean on the railing to watch.

After a long time, Xia Yuanzheng asked hesitantly, "Your Highness, it stands to reason that Chen Tuo doesn't need to come to Feiyun City. He brought [-] soldiers and horses here this time. He thought that it had nothing to do with Zhu Chen's arrival." Greatness."

"General Xia thinks that Chen Tuo has other ideas?" Li Chenghua asked softly.

"That's not true." Xia Yuanzheng shook his head, "I just feel that there is something weird about it."

"Yeah, since I came to the southern border, everything is strange." Li Chenghua smiled.

"Then Chen Tuo wants to continue to sit firmly on the top spot in Jinzhou, so naturally he must do his best to protect His Highness comprehensively. But after all, there are emergencies, and His Highness please be careful and be more vigilant." Xia Yuanzheng clasped his fists and said.

"General Xie Xia's reminder, I will." Li Chenghua said with a smile, "We should also go to tidy up the soldiers who went to Luezhen in the afternoon, and see that Nanyang prince well."

"Yes." Xia Yuanzheng clasped his fists to accept the order, and the dragging action made the armor make a crisp metal clang, listening to cheer up.

Li Chenghua didn't stay here too long, and went down with Xia Yuanzheng.Yu Gan and Gongsun Yan naturally followed,

Regarding the fact that Yu Gan and Gongsun Yan followed to Luezhen, Li Chenghua naturally would not object. He also knew what Yu Gan and the others were thinking, and they just wanted to confirm what happened to Zhu Chen.

After getting off the general's platform, the group went directly to the Longyou Army camp outside Feiyun City.

Of course, Yu Gan and Gongsun Yan had no room to intervene in the affairs of the army. The two kept silent from the beginning to the end, watching Xia Yuanzheng and Li Chenghua mobilize soldiers there.

In the end they only took [-] cavalry out, and the rest stayed in the camp.

Four thousand riders headed towards Wujiang in a mighty rush.Yu Gan and Gongsun Yan also followed Li Chenghua on a horse.

After riding for nearly 4000 miles, 20 people came to the edge of Wujiang River, and then galloped south along the river for more than [-] miles.Only then did it stop by the river.

Four thousand riders form four horizontal teams, standing by the river, looking at the opposite side.

Across the bank is the border of Jinzhou and Bingzhou, and there is a continuous camp stationed there, which is Zhu Chen's troops.

The width of the Wujiang River in this river basin is only tens of feet, and the situation on the opposite side can be seen relatively clearly.With the arrival of Yu Gan and his four thousand riders, there was a lot of movement in the opposite camp.

Although the movement is loud, the movements are orderly and disciplined.Batch after batch of soldiers united on the shore as quickly as possible.

The river Wujiang just hangs on the borderline of the two states. If Jinzhou treats Bingzhou as two countries, then this borderline can be described by the four words "drawing the river and governing".

Its strategic importance is self-evident.

Although Yu Gan lacked a bit of visual pattern in this grand strategy, he could feel the importance of this Wujiang River after staying in Feiyun City for a period of time.

Let's put it this way, in Jinzhou, this Wujiang River is not the most fertile river, but its status is in the forefront.

Therefore, whether it is Jinzhou or Bingzhou, all strategic locations in this area are built around Wujiang.Especially Feiyun City, Feiyun City, which is connected to several states and counties around it.

Feiyun City is located in a special place, surrounded by natural barriers, and it is also one of the most important communication nodes between the two states.

The location of Licheng is the most favorable throat position in the vicinity.Looking down at Bingzhou from a high position.

This Feiyun city not only serves as a gateway, but also the most important fortress guarding Wujiang.

The junction of Jinzhou and Bingzhou is already in bad land conditions, especially on the Jinzhou side, except for the large tributary of the Wujiang River nearby.Millions of people in the surrounding counties and counties, including Jinhe County, have to rely on this Wujiang River.

And Wujiang is a circulation, and Feiyun City happens to be located at the center of its circulation, no matter which area of ​​Wujiang is invaded, the soldiers of Feiyun City can arrive in an instant.

If the south of Jinzhou is to be stable, the Wujiang River cannot be cut off.That's why [-] Jinzhou elites are stationed in a small city like Feiyun City all year round.

Coupled with the strength of some nearby counties and counties, there are a total of [-] to [-] Jinzhou soldiers.

Therefore, the strategic position of Feiyun City has been raised to a very high position. After so many years of continuous reinforcement and construction, coupled with the surrounding natural dangers and isolation, it can be regarded as a super strong city.

If the Nanyang Army wants to take down Feiyun City, it will still be very difficult.

Some time ago, the small-scale battles between the Longyou Army and the Nanyang Army were all from here to the surrounding fortresses.Since Nanyang Chen Bing was here, the harassment of the various strongholds around here has never stopped.

Of course, Yu Gan can only see these things, he doesn't have the kind of advanced strategic view that radiates the overall situation, and he doesn't dare to be interested.

He was just staring at the movement on the opposite shore.

About a quarter of an hour later, four or five thousand soldiers and horses had assembled on the opposite bank to confront the Longyou Army.Apart from other things, the combined nearly [-] cavalry on both sides is quite shocking.

The visual impact brought by this kind of cavalry in the cold weapon era is still very spectacular. Looking at this tense scene, Yu Gan, an outsider, couldn't help but be a little bit inspired by the long-lost battlefield genes in his body.

Soon, a young man in white armor came out on a fine horse from the position of the Chinese army on the other side.

With Yu Gan's current eyesight, he can clearly see the other person's appearance, but his eyes instantly turned cold. This person is clearly Zhu Chen, and his appearance is exactly the same.

There is no difference except that the skin has become much fairer.

His body was full of vitality, and he didn't have any rotten aura, which meant that the other party was not a rotten body like a corpse.

There is only one possibility for such a body full of vitality, and that is that Zhu Chen is really still alive.

Is there really a technique of bringing the dead back to life in the world?Yu Gan frowned, and so did Gongsun Yan, who naturally recognized this Zhu Chen, and also expressed doubts.

At this moment, the Linglu in Yu Gan's mind suddenly moved, and then he started flipping through it automatically.

Soon, the information about Zhu Chen was reflected on the Linglu.Yu Gan watched carefully and understood why Zhu Chen was able to live.

The body of the spirit Gu, that is to say, this Zhu Chen attached his soul to the Gu body, so he is no longer considered a human race, and was directly classified as a strange evil by the spirit talisman.

From the perspective of the human race, he is now a heretic,

If it weren't for the spirit talisman, Yu Gan wouldn't be able to tell that the opponent is no longer a human race, but a Gu worm.

Who on earth can do such a handy job, can perfectly fuse the soul of the human race with the Gu body, and can continue to survive in safety, and can perfectly cover the breath of the Gu body.

Yu Gan thought that cultivators below the second-rank heavenly realm would not be able to tell, that is to say, it was a second-rank heavenly cultivator who rescued Zhu Chen?

And he was one of the best among the second-rank monks.

Yu Gan heard from Ke Zhenbang last time that the famous second-rank monk in southern Xinjiang seems to be the only one who got the inheritance of Gu God.

Could it be the hand of this Gu God inheritor?Otherwise, Yu Gan really couldn't think of any reason.

When he was amazed by the mysterious power of the southern border, his face became more and more cold.

No matter how heretic the person in front of him has become, there is no doubt that the soul is Zhu Chen.From Yu Gan's point of view, he doesn't pay much attention to human blood.

The body is just a carrier, the important thing is the soul.Now that Zhu Chen's soul is still there, it means that he is still there.

Yu Gan looked at the opponent riding on a tall horse and bathed in the sun expressionlessly, and there was only one thought in his heart, that he must kill him again, and make him die.

Gongsun Yan, who was right next to Yu Gan, could clearly sense the change in Yu Gan at this moment, and asked in a worried voice, "You have had a lot of contact with Zhu Chen, is this Zhu Chen the real person?"

Yu Gan looked back at Gongsun Yan, smiled and said, "It's him."

"How can I still be alive?"

"Maybe relying on the secret technique of southern border."

"You, don't mess around." Gongsun Yan instructed again seriously.Now she is really afraid that Yu Gan will lose control of herself and act recklessly.

"Don't worry, I know it well." Yu Gan replied with a smile, then turned his head and squinted at the dazzling Zhu Chen.My mind was spinning rapidly.

Immediately, the assassination plan came to mind.

One, do it yourself.This Zhu Chen is now in this barracks, and with his current strength of being able to beat a third-rank peak monk to sneak over, it is not difficult to solve this Zhu Chen secretly.

I'm afraid that Zhu Chen will come back to life once, and Zhu Yu will let the second-rank monk who lives in Nanyang secretly protect him.Or secretly entrust other third-rank monks for protection.

Yu Gan felt that the latter was more likely. After all, Zhu Chen was now on the territory of Nanyang, so it was unlikely that he would arrange for second-rank monks to protect him personally.His Nanyang did not have such a big hand.

If this is the case, there is a high probability that he can succeed by sneaking in the past.

The second is to let the Lu patriarch of the Tianhu clan take action.I had asked Yu Xiaowan for another demon nucleus before.If you use this demon pulp core to ask Patriarch Lu to take action against Zhu Chen, the chance of success is even greater.

After several contacts and requests for help from the patriarch Lu, the other party is a very principled second-rank celestial cultivator.Yu Gan can also feel at ease to cooperate with her.

It's just that I promised Patriarch Lu before that I don't have any more demon pulp cores. If I take out another one, I can't guarantee whether the other party will have other crooked ideas.

In addition, the other party may not make a move, because the rules of this world are here.If second-rank monks assassinate indiscriminately, it is easy to attract criticism.

If this is spread, it will greatly implicate the Tianhu family.

With patriarch Lu's disposition, perhaps he would not do an assassination act for the sake of the demon nucleus, which would cause the Tianhu family to be criticized and hostile by the world.

The third is to act together with Patriarch Lu.I am responsible for infiltrating and assassinating him. If Zhu Chen has the protection of a second-rank monk, just let patriarch Lu take the lead.

This compromise is the best.It's just that the remuneration really needs to be carefully considered, so that the patriarch Lu will not refuse such a convenient thing.

Assassination is a good way, but the difficult thing is what to do after the assassination.

Yu Gan is not fully confident that he can leave without leaving any traces. After all, this is the headquarters of Nanyang, and Zhu Yu has a close relationship with Nanjiang.

When the time comes, he will immediately invite these powerful monks to investigate, but Yu Gan doesn't think he can hide it well.

156n.net

Once he was discovered, he would definitely be inseparable from Nanyang.There is no doubt that he must die.

This problem can be avoided by running away as soon as the assassination is over, but there is another more unsolvable problem.

That was the question about the balance at the current stage that I mentioned before. Once Zhu Chen was assassinated, Nanyang would definitely retaliate with one heart and one mind.

It is very likely that the war will break out directly.At that time, Li Chenghua and the [-] Longyou Army will face the greatest impact directly, and a mere [-] soldiers will not be able to stop the Nanyang army.
